I got this off the net

Welcome to the realm of the deep. We're talking deep that is so far down in the ocean it's hard to fathom* (where do you think the expression came from?). Deep so deep that it takes hours to free fall to the ocean bottom. Studying this inner space is truly extreme science. The oceans are WAY deeper than anything on land is high. Many people say that the ocean realm is truly the last frontier on earth. There is still much we don't know about the ocean depths that makes being a scientist in this exciting field such an adventure. New creatures are still being discovered while scientists seek to unravel some ancient mysteries. Join Extreme Science for an illuminating look at the Creatures of the Deep.

Lets go on a s2k voyage on a deep sea adventure to look for some hot mermaids.

i'm surprised the creature didn't just spontaneously exploded due to the drastic decrease in pressure at sea level.
Not if you come up slowly.

When the little mini sub go grab some critter and seal it into a container at a given pressure and then open it at the surface, I would expect a kaboom. If this thing was sick and just slowly moseys up to the surface, I don't think the same applies.


Sort of like divers depressurizing in a chamber or by surfacing very slowly.
